EffIcacy Between Arthrocentesis With High Versus Low Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid in Treatment of TMJ Disorders

The study will be carried out in Patients in two Groups aged between 17 to 70 years , of both sexes, who had painful symptoms, with or without presence of joint noise, and had unilateral or bilateral internal derangement of the TMJ proven by clinical examination, with no improvement after conservative treatment.

About this study

The MEASUREMENT TOOL of the study will be carried out by 2 groups the first will be injected by high molecular weight hyaluronic acid and the second wil be injected by low molecular weight hyaluronic acid Then compare between Efectevness of injection of high-molecular weight versus Low moecular weight hyaluronic acid after two-needle arthrocentesis in improving the signs and symptoms of intra-articular TMJ disorder.

, 1- significantly improving the pain on scale 1-10 , and 2-significant improvements in mouth opening range in mm by the distance between the edges of the frontal incisors with a ruler or caliper and joint noise.

3-The presence of absence of clicking and cracking in jaw .

Treatment and study plan

Hyaluronic acid

Drug

Comparative study between Hyalgan and Hyorth injectable products in TMJ Disorders by arthrocentesis of 2 syringes device

Other names: Arthrocentesis

Syringes

Device

Whilst you are asleep, two small needles will be inserted into the TMJ / Jaw Joint. One of these needles allows sterile saline to be pumped into the joint under pressure whilst the other needle allows the saline to drain out of the joint then injection of the HA injectiable products .

Other names: Arthrocentesis
